    I just got a phone call from the race office - I've been offered the
    chance to start at number 20, instead of 68, in the Junior tomorrow.
    Which, of course, I grabbed with both hands. Having posted 14th
    fastest time (I think - there's no collated practice sheet available
    yet, but almost everyone put in their fastest times on Thursday), that
    should leave me with a few people to chase, which usually makes me go a
    bit quicker.

    I have to say that I'm jolly excited !

    .... I'll bet you're glad he didn't offer you a 69.

    DFC and all that.

    Have fun, go fast, then get back here. I need to get the 1/2 box of tyre
    warmers out of my garage sharpish; there's not enough room for the
    warmers and the Maxia.
